Where to Find Free Stuff on the Web

Procter and Gamble This company offers free samples of Tide laundry detergent, Pro V Expressions hair care products, as well as Prilosec OTC and Oral B. You'll have to register with an e-mail address and a password to get your free stuff. But you'll also have access to coupons and discounts. If you already use these products, this is a great deal. You can even sign up for e-mail alerts for when one of your favorite products becomes available.
Total Cereal Sign up to get a free sample of Total Blueberry Pomegranate cereal. All you have to do is fill out your name, address, e-mail address and birth date to get a box in the mail. You'll also receive an e-mail newsletter with recipe ideas, along with online coupons and special offers. You can always cancel the newsletter if your inbox is getting too crowded.
Dove.us Get a sample of Dove's new "Therapy System" products. Simply fill out a form with your home address, e-mail address, birth date, gender and marital status, and you'll receive two products in the mail. You can also take part in a hair analysis on their web site to determine which products are right for your tresses.
Ed-Foods Here, you'll receive a trio of soups, sauces or seasonings mailed to your home. But you do have to pay $10 for shipping. You can choose between a soup trio or a seasoning trio.
McCormick The company web site offers free samples and coupons on a regular basis. You just have to join the "My McCormick" Club. McCormick is known for its spices and sauces.
Revlon If you register at Revlon.com, you'll receive free samples on a regular basis as well as advance notice about new products and contests. They ask for your name, address and date of birth.
Pantene At the company web site, you'll receive free samples of their latest product, "New Expressions" for color treated hair.

It is a $2.99 value. Just fill out the form and you should receive your sample within a couple weeks. You have to answer a few questions like, "Have you tried other sugar-free desserts?" and "Where do you usually shop for this type of product?"
